Pruning Shears NEO tools 15-253 Weight 1.36 kg

The NEO tools 15-253 pruning shears weigh 1.36 kg and are designed for precise cutting of plants. These by-pass garden shears have a working length of 665 mm and telescopic handles that extend reach to 965 mm, allowing access to higher branches without a ladder. The by-pass blade system produces sharp, smooth cuts suitable for fresh wood, while non-stick coated blades reduce sap and debris adhesion for easier maintenance. A toothed lever transmission increases cutting force by approximately 40%, reducing effort during pruning.

Advantages

The by-pass cutting mechanism ensures clean cuts that support healthy plant regrowth. Telescopic aluminium arms keep the tool lightweight while extending reach from 665 mm to 965 mm. Non-slip, two-material handles provide a secure grip during use. The toothed transmission multiplies applied force, making it easier to cut branches up to the specified maximum diameter. Non-stick blade coating limits residue build-up and simplifies cleaning.

Suitable for

• Pruning fresh wood and green branches in gardens and orchards
• Cutting branches up to 42 mm diameter
• Reaching higher shrubs or small trees without using a ladder
• Routine seasonal trimming and shaping of hedges and shrubs

How to use

Position the shears so the branch is aligned between the by-pass blades and operate the handles with a steady, controlled motion. For thicker branches approach the cut gradually, using the toothed transmission to reduce the required hand force. Extend the telescopic handles to increase reach and retract them for storage or when working at lower levels. After use, wipe the blades clean to remove sap and debris and store the tool in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

Use the shears on fresh wood up to the specified 42 mm diameter and avoid cutting frozen or excessively dry branches to prevent blade damage. Regularly clean and lightly oil the blades and check the telescopic mechanism for smooth operation. Wear appropriate hand protection and ensure a stable stance when working at height.
